It's been awhile since we've seen Ke$ha strutting her stuff, but after seeing these latest photos from V Magazine's American Issue, it was definitely worth the wait!

The 25-year-old "Tik Tok" singer, wearing red, white and blue for her patriotic spread, is talking about who she'd like to collaborate with on future albums. Ke$ha tells the mag:

"The range of artists I want to work with is so vast, it's bizarre. I would love to have Keith Richards on the record. I would sure as hell like to do a collaboration with Bieber and at the same time do a song with the Flaming Lips."
